java - Use of 64 bit Windows IE WebDriver when it type very slow -


recently, got machine replaced , had start installing stuffs on again. have 64-bit windows machine , instead of using 64-bit ie driver, used 32-bit ie driver. reason using 32-bit ie driver slow typing issue in 64-bit one, , switching seems option can found in below threads.

why selenium internetexplorerdriver webdriver slow in debug mode (visual studio 2010 , ie9), , webdriver , ie10 slow input

my questions are:

  1. can slow typing issue solved without switching 32-bit ie driver?

  2. what need of 64-bit ie driver when can slow down tests much?

on selenium official download page, 32-bit recommended, require 64-bit.

can slow typing issue solved without switching 32-bit ie driver?

to knowledge no. did benchmarking on login page of application using 32x vs 64x version. there significant amount of performance improvement when use 32x know.

what need of 64-bit ie driver when can slow down tests much?

couple of reasons why.

  • according this thread, non-truncated screenshot of page possible if use 64x version of iedriverserver.
  • the 64x of ie8 on windows 7 rtm , ie9 both can run 64x application using 64x iedriverserver. there need use 64x application testing purpose.
